Atonement



IF you are  willing to give me one final chance, I stripped out ALL my
junk - and it WAS junk - and just kept to the original text - which
is what I shoulda done in the 1st place,

Ron, thanks for your heartfelt opinion!  And for sending it so quickly!
I think it saved me from going down in ALOT of FLAMES! I definitely
got carried away and NEEDED a wake-up call. Really: thank you!

Apologies again to anybody I might have offended and to the list for
using up so much bandwidth on this...

If you just want to cut to the chase, it's at:

'Technical' notes: (only if you're interested)

Logo: Too big? Probly!  The nice shadow under it in the ENORMOUS
png file got faded-to-black in the more-managable gif. I'll either have to
crop it or play with png compression. (Are png's on websites frowned
upon .... still?)

Background: just a quick & dirty 1st cut. Needs to be smoothed to get rid of
banding in the footer and other things. I can use ANY background, though!
Any suggestions? I just need to cut it into 3 pieces. Bear in mind, a BIG file
will be slow to load, and small files will look blocky and distorted under
browser-scaling.

If you'd rather have a background like gnome.org, *THAT'S* a piece of cake!

Browsers: Works OK under moz & firefox (not surprising). Those are the
only ones I have.

Scrolling: jumpiness particularly with smooth-scrolling enabled. Probly due
to css transparency, which I may not even need ....

Templates: template.html for pages, along with templates in the faq, downloads,
and links pages.

Links page: just a place-holder right now. If it's a desirable page, I'll add a table.

CSS: I'm not super-proficient at it, so maybe I have a lot of unecessary,
trial-and-error artifacts in garnomestyle.css. If anybody's REALLY
interested, suggestions would be MOST appreciated.

All for now

Thanks!
